Welcome to Faro, the gateway to the Algarve and the harmonious meeting place between history, culture, and natural beauty. For those who choose ALTO HOUSE as their haven in this enchanting city: get ready for an unforgettable experience as you immerse yourself in the unique essence of Faro. Faro – more than a mere tourist stop, a mosaic of experiences and visions. Its cobbled streets, lined with historic buildings, lead to hidden wonders and unexpected adventures. The heart of the city, the Old Town, is a maze of narrow streets and secret courtyards where every corner reveals a piece of the Algarve’s rich history. While there, you can explore the medieval walls and the “Arco da Vila” – a portal into the past. No description of Faro is complete without a mention of the Formosa Lagoon – a spectacular natural park, wildlife sanctuary, and nature lover’s paradise. This area of exceptional natural beauty provides hiking trails, birdwatching opportunities, and boat trips, allowing visitors to foster a deep connection with nature. For lovers of culture, Faro is a treasure. Faro Municipal Museum, housed in the former Convent of Our Lady of the Assumption, displays a fascinating collection that chronicles the history of the region. The city’s churches, such as impressive Faro Cathedral, are testaments to Portuguese religious architecture, each telling its own story. The food in Faro is yet another attraction. Local restaurants serve a delicious ensemble of flavours from the sea and land. Dishes such as a seafood cataplana and fish stew reflect the richness of the oceans, while Mediterranean influences come through in dishes seasoned with olive oil, garlic, and fresh herbs.
